2010 Map of Bald Knob

About this map

Bald Knob and the prominent Moro Mountain define the topography of this Taylor County landscape, where the high mesas of Table Mountain and the natural passage at Table Gap break the surrounding plains. The territory is a mix of ranching land and energy production, anchored by the Atwood Oil Field in the north-central section. Significant water features including Elm Creek and Buffalo Creek drain the area, while the Billups Lake Dam creates a localized reservoir at Billups Lake. For those tracing local family histories, the presence of Dewey Cemetery and Counts Cemetery offers specific points of interest among the network of rural roads like FM 382 and Co RD 175 that connect these dispersed landmarks.
